Gabriele's acute lymphoblastic leukemia treatment fund
6 rounds of treatment are planned at Rome University Hospital; we're asking for help with the costs insurance doesn't cover.
🇮🇹 Italy1,377 views
Gabriele was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in January. The oncology team at Rome University Hospital has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in March. He will be away from work for about 8 weeks.
Gabriele is 58, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until January, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after him.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Rome University Hospital 2 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly.
We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off his shoulders.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $3,100 goes:
• Scans and lab work: $700
• Transport to Rome University Hospital: $410
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $280
• Household costs while unable to work: $1,710
Glad we found this place.

Best of luck. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up
your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Saint Petersburg
Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Rome!
praying for you, Enrico. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best.
Sending love, Enrico. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted. Blessings.
thanks for sharing this, Enrico. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Rome.
Wishing Gabriele a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
this could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Rome.
